Since Facebook now registers on Google, there is a huge disadvantage in putting your entire post on Facebook: search engines will see the duplicate content and mark BOTH sites as spam, so your blog loses a huge amount of googlejuice. I always recommend only posting a snippet and a link to Facebook.

1. Is it okay to have my WordPress.com blog listed as a Networked Blog on Facebook? Or will search engines also consider that to be a duplicate post?

2. My WordPress.com blog is also listed in my profile under the links section. I had put my blog there initially, before I made it a FB networked blog. Should I remove it from links since this is overkill?

Thanks for any insights.

PS Please let me know if this is not the appropriate place to ask this question. I'm new to all this :)

If you want to converse about your experiences with your wordpress.org blog then it's important that you post to the correct forum, lest you inadvertently mislead others there at wordpress.com as wordpress.org blogs and wordpress.com blogs run on different software. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

I set up my blog to publicize to Facebook and it worked perfectly, showing up on FB almost immediately. The problem is that each of my blogs has a photo at the top and those are important. But the photo is not sent to FB. Is there a way I can set it to show a photo also?
Thanks!
